The bond market pricing weight is shifting towards fundamentals. In the short - term, interest - rate bonds may maintain a narrow - range oscillation, while in the long - term, bond yields are expected to decline in an oscillatory manner [3][6]. 3) Summary by Related Content Event Introduction - On May 7, the State Council Information Office held a press conference to introduce the "package of financial policies to support market stability and expectation stabilization." The central bank, the financial regulatory authority, and the China Securities Regulatory Commission proposed specific policy measures [3]. Policy Analysis RRR Cut - The central bank will lower the RRR by 0.5 percentage points, providing about 1 trillion yuan of long - term liquidity to the financial market. After the cut, the average RRR will drop from 6.6% to 6.2%. In April, the central bank also carried out a 120 - billion - yuan outright reverse repurchase operation, with a net MLF investment of 500 billion yuan and a net outright reverse repurchase withdrawal of 500 billion yuan, adjusting the term structure of liquidity injection [4]. Interest Rate Cut - Policy Interest Rate: The policy interest rate will be lowered by 0.1 percentage points from 1.5% to 1.4%. It is expected to drive the loan prime rate (LPR) down by 0.1 percentage points. The central bank will also guide commercial banks to lower deposit rates through the interest rate self - regulatory mechanism, which is expected to open up a downward space for capital interest rates [5]. - Structural Monetary Policy Tool Interest Rates: All structural monetary policy tool interest rates will be reduced by 0.25 percentage points. Newly established 50 - billion - yuan service consumption and pension relending, an increase in the science and technology innovation and technological transformation relending quota from 50 billion to 80 billion, and an increase in the overall agricultural and small - business relending quota by 30 billion to 300 billion are planned to support economic structural transformation [5]. - Personal Housing Provident Fund Loan Interest Rate: The personal housing provident fund loan interest rate will be reduced by 0.25 percentage points. The first - home mortgage rate for terms over 5 years will drop from 2.85% to 2.6%. It is expected to save residents over 20 billion yuan in annual provident fund loan interest, which is beneficial for supporting rigid housing demand and stabilizing the real estate market [5]. Investment Strategy - In the short - term, due to external demand pressure, domestic fundamental instability, and the implementation of RRR cuts and interest rate cuts, interest - rate bonds may maintain a narrow - range oscillation. In the long - term, considering domestic employment, real estate, and population structure issues leading to insufficient demand, bond yields are expected to decline in an oscillatory manner. It is recommended to conduct band trading of 10 - year treasury bonds in the 1.60% - 1.70% range and choose 10 - year active bonds with high liquidity [6].
